This probably way too opinionated for a thread like this, but Marty Friedman's play in Megadeth is nothing compared to his solo stuff. Case in point:


Unfortunately, the other song I was going to use as an example is not on YouTube as played by Marty but here is a cover:

Marty says much the same himself. Describing life in Megadeth he said (and I'm paraphrasing)

"Thrash metal really has only one colour, and that's gunmetal grey."

He talked about how Megadeth was fun, but how he also wanted to branch out and flex his creativity in ways that really didn't fit with the Megadeth mold.

Seiichi Yamamoto, legendary guitarist with the Boredoms and Rovo.

Rovo at the Fuji Rock Festival in 2001, with added Japanese stoners and hippies for your enjoyment:

All about (more or less traditional) jazz for me. Django Reinhardt and Freddie Green at the top, then Marty Grosz, Stochelo Rosenberg, Joe Pass, Bucky Pizzarelli, etc.

I'm suprised so few have mentioned Tommy Emmanuel, he really kicks ass at acoustic guitar.

Other than that, every other guitaris I enjoy the most is mentioned. Bottom line, I'm a Petrucci fanboy!

My favorite guitarists are Allan Holdsworth and Pat Metheny. Though I'm more of a bass guy, and my favorite bassists are Alex Webster, Steve Bailey.

Finally someone with taste =] I mentioned Marty on like page 3, and was shocked no one mentioned him at all thruout pretty much the whole thread. He is the most underrated guitarist in the world by far.

Some other great mentions, Alex Skolnick, Jeff Loomis, GREG HOWE.. Tony MacAlpine, hide from X Japan. Jason Becker of course.

Just about all my favorite guitarists have been mentioned already but I think John Mayer is great. He's more famous for his pop-ish stuff but he's actually a really great guitarist. He also has a bunch of really good guitars in his collection.

That performance is a blasphemous fucking murder of the song!
